GENERAL/STORY:
Once upon a time,
Hyrule's tranquility was shattered by the arrival of several disasters.
The calamities brought dark, ominous clouds that shut out the sun. Surprisingly,
a lone magician was to blame for the disasters. About the time when people
were losing all hope, the sun miraculously returned. Link, who was summoned
by Zelda to find the cause of the disasters, succeeded in defeating the
magician. The people of Hyrule rejoiced in the belief that eternal peace
would rule. Unfortunately, this was not to be. It became clear that the
magician responsible for the disasters was in fact controlled by the evil
sword known as the Soul Edge, which existed in an another world. Furthermore,
the fragments of the Soul Edge were gathering together in this other world.
Knowing that the resurrection of the evil blade must be prevented at all
costs, Link chose to travel to the other world and destroy the Soul Edge.
Link gathered his trusted Master Sword, Hylian Shield, and ocarina and
set off on a secret journey.

REVIEW:
I was as shocked
as everyone else when I heard that everyone's favorite boy in tights was
going to appear in the Gamecube version of Soul Calibur 2 as a special
guest character... Who would have thought? Link carries around an unrivaled
amount of nostalgia wherever he goes, and has always been a memorable and cool
video game character.
To see Namco bring him into their
hit weapon-based fighting game series, and have him drawn & animated their
way, was a real treat. Namco really did an amazing job at capturing a lot of his famous
movements, and bringing them up to speed for Soul Calibur 2 (his first real fighting game appearance)...
No I don't consider Super Smash Brothers a real
fighting game.
